When your baby starts to wake up stirring or cried do you feel a strong feeling in the pit of your stomach?

It doesn't feel like I want to be sick but it's a very deep weird feeling.
Maybe a nervousness... I'm not entirely sure how to describe it. But I feel a need to respond instantly..

Yes! Mom instinct! For the first year or so, I would even hear phantom cries. It's a thing. Like if I took a shower and left him sleeping, I would be really anxious thinking I heard him wake. It's a thing apparently
